I had this weird idea that leave voters thought they would be getting out of the EU when they voted to leave. I better cut down on the drugs Laughing


You, sir, are absolutely right! They did not vote on EEA membership, of recognising ECJ for dispute resolution, or the right of Great British pensioners to spend their sunset years staring at sunsets in Portugal. The question was only about leaving EU; nothing was asked about how far we should move away from it.

There is only out. Completely. If we're not out completely, we haven't left. Everything else is just a smoke screen, a distraction from the question. Including sunsets in Portugal Laughing

No sir, there are dozens of versions of “out”, from “Switzerland-out”, through “Canadian-out” to “North Korea-out”. No one told us that Brezit will be true and valid only when close to the last one.

And that, gentlemen, is the rub... The question asked was too simplistic to be meaningful.

What is your favourite smell, dogshit or catshit? You aren't allowed an alternative nor to explain your answer.

Wrong. Those are all options for the future relationship, if there is to be one. They have nothing to do with being in or out of the EU. In or out: a binary question.

A binary question it is (in my best Yoda), but too simplistic to have a meaningful answer, Luke.

I refer the honourable gentleman to my dogshit/catshit analogy.

You seem to agree then that leaving EU only, but for example remaining in EEA, would be an entirely kosher Brexit?

It's not going to happen though, without they try to dictate on other matters. So we must leave all EU-regulated institutions. They have made it quite clear that this is the only way we can leave. Then we can see if they are interested in us negotiating trade positions with them. For you, leaving or staying in is all only about trade. That's not the case for many people. It may have been a long time ago, but the EU has made it about everything else too.

No - we voted for shit or no shit. It's the flavour that's to be debated once we have the shit on our hands.

Fourte both options are shit depending who you talk to, and neither is perfect according to everybody, therefore it is a question of dogshit vs catshit, not shit or no shit.

Thank you for the 'boring' rating. I expect to be mesmerised by your response.

Let me make its simpler for you. Many argue that we are worse off in the EU. Many argue that we will be worse off out of it. Given that both views hold validity, neither choice is ideal.

Black/white

Win/lose

Heads/tails

Dogshit/catshit

It is all the same.

The only good thing is those fenian bastards over on that shitty bit of rock we should have nuked rather than Bikini atholl won't renegotiate on the back stop so anything is pretty dead in the water, I hope.

The referendum said jack-shit about how people wanted to leave.

TM has deferred the vote so she can go back to the EU to 'renegotiate'...


According to Brexiteers voting leave meant you were voting to take back control of our laws and regulations, to stop contributing to the EU budget and to have fewer migrants from Eastern Europe and none from Turkey.

According to Remainers voting Leave meant voting for Nigel Farage, racism, xenophobia, poverty, no growth, a big recession, hundreds of thousands of job losses and the towing of Britain away from Europe.

So that is what the mandate is for Wink

I do genuinely wonder what you'd be doing with your time if Remain won.

And just to show how devious newspapers and the like are (as we needed any further proof) and how little a graph means with only 1 axis.....

Sterling fell 0.017cents in total, nothing to cry about but look how they portray it.

Of course they're both shit. But - this is a chance to change the shit we currently get. We can change from the same old shit with the possibility of some initial constipation which will result in some fine smelling musty warm shit.
No shit is perfect but we cannot keep with the same old shit.
I remember the days when there was little shit anywhere. We could run, walk and do almost anything we wanted. Now? Too much shit. That shit restricts us and foreign lands tell us we must accept dog or cat shit. We're choking, stifled. This is our chance to make those foreign lands take their shit and eat it. To accept long term shit is stupid and not sensible. To change the current shit brings newness and a clear path, free from the shit that stands before us.

Hey you're welcome. You got boring because it's the same old shit.
Me? Fresh shit through and through with some irritable bowel thrown in.
